Anyone who knows me, knows that I do not like to wear make-up. It's not that I'm against it, it's just that make-up doesn't agree with my skin-I'm highly sensitive. So when I had a chance to try Kim's product, I was skeptical, to say the least. But boy was I in for a surprise. Her product line is very good. Lightweight, easy to use, and it's one of the few products I can actually put on my face without an immediate burning sensation. So of course, I just had to interview her.

While this interview was written about a year ago, I think you'll find the information still relevant to day. In fact, I think you'll find her product line fascinating and worth the money you spend.

How did you get into making and distributing make-up?

Two words - Bad Skin. I have struggled with my "less than perfect" skin for as far back as I can remember. I bought, used and tried everything under the sun to fix and/or conceal my breakouts, abnormally oily skin and large pores.

I thought that it was my skin that was the problem, not what I was putting ON my skin, that never occurred to me until I decided to try mineral makeup. I started out with a big name brand and had such a great experience with it, I was hooked! My skin started to clear up, I did not have pools of oil sitting on my face any longer, it was like a dream come true! Unfortunately the minerals that I was using had a plastic like shine to it and it did not last long enough. That was when I started to research and see if it was possible to do this myself. I put alot of time and effort into finding the top of the line ingredients and coming up with the perfect formulas to help with troubled skin like mine.

I understand you've moved out of the home and into your own office space. Moving a business from home to office can be a scary step for many home business owners. What did you do to prepare for the move? How did you justify it, cost wise?

Working from home was the greatest benefit of this business. When I started my youngest daughter was only 2 months old so it was a necessity but, after only a short time I realized that we could not conduct business and grow if we had limited space. I made the move to move the business to an office 4xs as big and we could not be happier! We are now able to move freely, add on extra inventory and machines, that would just not of been possible otherwise.

Now that you have the added expense of an office and office staff, what steps will you take to increase production and revenue?

I have added on more employees to do various jobs that I once did myself such as shipping, customer service. With the addition of employees that enables us to move orders quickly and more efficiently.
